Proverbs 5:3-14

Proverbs 5:3-14

3
For the lips of a strange woman drop honey, And smoother than oil is her mouth,
4
And her latter end is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a sword with mouths.
5
Her feet are going down to death, Sheol do her steps take hold of.
6
The path of life--lest thou ponder, Moved have her paths--thou knowest not.
7
And now, ye sons, hearken to me, And turn not from sayings of my mouth.
8
Keep far from off her thy way, And come not near unto the opening of her house,
9
Lest thou give to others thy honour, And thy years to the fierce,
10
Lest strangers be filled with thy power, And thy labours in the house of a stranger,
11
And thou hast howled in thy latter end, In the consumption of thy flesh and thy food,
12
And hast said, `How have I hated instruction, And reproof hath my heart despised,
13
And I have not hearkened to the voice of my directors, And to my teachers have not inclined mine ear.
14
As a little thing I have been all evil, In the midst of an assembly and a company.
